Yep 5 wheel bolts.


you do realize that the rings just 'center' the wheel on the hub, and it doesnt actually provide any load capability (most are made of a synthetic material)... The load capability isnt even necessary in a non racing application.

Way too small yeah right. Rims look sick. Size is perfect. I have 18s and definitely think 19s is just about right. Very nice and original

Are those the CH-R?

Love the look, +1 to the opinion that 19" on these cars looks "right".

I agree 19's are the way to go.. 20's are too big and you Lose too much performance, and let's face it that's what's it's ALL ABOUT...
